Crafted for explorers, the Adidas NMD_S1 is a modern lifestyle shoe that keeps movement as its mantra. The Rimowa x Adidas NMD_S1 iteration features the futuristic sneaker’s signature Primeknit uppers in a titanium-inspired colourway, with the flexible Adidas Boost midsole in a light, almost translucent base colour. On the shoe’s midsole, wearers will find the coordinates of the brands’ respective headquarters in Germany, as well as a ‘Made in Germany’ imprint that signifies the momentous partnership. NMD shoelaces in the same shade of orange complete the design, the company said in a press release.
The Rimowa x Adidas NMD_Backpack boasts new technical solutions that makes it suitable for outdoor needs and overnight trips. Made from Rimowa’s signature grooved aluminium, it features a number of thoughtful functionalities, from padded utility shoulder straps fitted with a carabin and thumb loops to rope weight-bearing straps and grab handle. The piece also features foam ridges inspired by Adidas Boost foam overlaying the backpack’s grooved surface to ensure comfort, as well as an elasticated webbing running through its middle to secure the backpack onto the suitcase’s telescopic tubes. To allow for flat packing, a detachable gusset opens the backpack to reveal two deep zipped pockets, as well as a 16-inch laptop pocket inscribed with both brands’ logos.
